Lionel 6-8100 Norfolk & Western J-Class 4-8-4 Steam Locomotive & Tender

This locomotive is a re-creation of the favorite 1957 Lionel #746. This big powerful 4-8-4 streamliner is an authentic representation of the original which pulled the N&W Powhatan Arrow, a luxurious passenger train inaugurated in 1949. Running from Norfolk through the scenic Appalachian and Allegheny mountains, it conquered their steep grades and torturous curves and was capable of roaring speeds of up to 90 miles per hour on the level stretch to Cincinnati.
